A Multidimensional Approach to the Representation of the Spatio-Temporal Multi-Granularity

چکیده
Many efforts have been devoted to the treatment of spatial data in databases both in traditional database systems and decision support systems or On-Line Analytical Processing (OLAP) technologies in datawarehouses (DW). Nevertheless, many open questions concerning this kind of data still remain. The work presented in this paper is focused on dealing with the spatial and temporal granularity within a logical multidimensional model. The spatial data representation through a multidimensional model clarifies the understanding of the data analysis subject and it allows discovering special behavior hardly detected without it. We propose an extension of the Snowflake model to gather the spatial data and to show our proposal to represent the spatial evolution through the time in an easy and intuitive way. We represented the temporal and spatial multigranularity with different levels in the hierarchies of the dimensions, and we present a typology of hierarchies to include more semantics in the Snowflake schema.

Spatio-temporal analysis of the covid-19 impacts on the using Chicago urban shared bicycles by tensor-based approach
Cycling is a phenomenon in urban transportation that has the ability to allocate a specific location at any moment in time. Accordingly, spatial analysis of bicycle trips can be accompanied by temporal analysis. The use of a GIS environment is commonly recommended to display the extent of the phenomenon's spatial changes. However, in order to apply and display changes over time, it will requir...
متن کاملAn Object-Relational Approach to the Representation of Multi-granular Spatio-Temporal Data
The notion of spatio-temporal multi-granularity is fundamental when modeling objects in GIS applications in that it supports the representation of the temporal evolutions of these objects. Concepts and issues in multi-granular spatio-temporal representations have been widely investigated by the research community. However, despite the large number of theoretical investigations, no comprehensive...

Routing and data aggregation are two important techniques for reducing communication cost of wireless sensor networks (WSNs). To minimize communication cost, routing methods can be merged with data aggregation techniques. Compressive sensing (CS) is one of the effective techniques for aggregating network data, which can reduce the cost of communication by reducing the amount of routed data to t...

Background: Congenital Hypothyroidism (CH) is one of the reasons for mental retardation and defective growth in neonates. It can be treated if it is diagnosed early. The congenital hypothyroidism can be diagnosed using newborn screening in the first days after birth. Disease mapping helps to identify high-risk areas of the disease. This study aimed to evaluate the pattern of CH using the Poisso...
